Staying cool
gtsr515:
I recommend you drain and flush the cooling system, add a 30/70 coolant mix and a bottle of Water Wetter. Make sure your clutch fan is working properly and replace the radiator cap if it's over three years old. The stock radiator is marginal. If you develop any kind of cooling problem that isn't due to a failing clutch fan or other component, upgrade to a 3 row radiator, as I did. Works great. Water Wetter is also a must-have for any cooling system but especially an older one driven in extra-hot climates. It's not a panacea but it certainly helps. Reduces temps about 10 degrees. If you can't find it locally, order it by mail. Worth the trouble. |
